    Bl00dy cars ;)

    Sorry it's been one if those weeks Ed, but it's the weekend now and a new day tomorrow.

    Chocs
    What choccielover said. And in a week as bad as that, we can make mistakes ourselves that we'd never make normally, just from the stress of it all - as you say, we start to doubt ourselves.

    You're home, you're safe, the diet can go sod off, hope you've had a relaxing evening tonight, and you've got a good weekend lined up, whether that means a walk on your own or playing with littl'un, or a nice meal with Mrs Ed.

    Sorry to hear this week has been challenging on the vehicle front Mr E! Important thing is you are all safe.
    Hope you are going to do something enjoyable this weekend :)

    Wow, what a week - if Scotland lose, it'd just about finish you off! :rotfl:


    I can hear the England national anthem now.... why do England have to put up with God Save the Queen, when all the other home nations have something stirring..


    Altogether now.....'Flower of Scotland...'
